Google Plus Profiles Begin to Show up in Search Results
Posted on | July 12, 2011 | No Comments
Profiles of Google Plus users are being displayed in the search results. Google + is the new social network launched by the Internet giant Google.
It consists of photo, short description,links to other social networking site mentioned by you in your plus profile.
It will be intresting to see if Google makes public posts of users searchable as it has been hailed as a good blogging platform. Kevin Rose has even redirected his blog http://kevinrose.com to his Google+ profile.
Update: Google is indeed showing public posts in its search result. Though I had to put in an entire sentence from Scoble’s public post in the search box to find his post, it wouldn’t be long before Google gives G+ posts more weightage for short keywords.
With Google giving importance to Google Plus posts, it seems we won’t be quiting Google plus soon. I mean, who can give up the urge of commenting on some juicy posts? Google might have other failed products like Knol which it tried to resucitate by displaying it in search results, but in this case it is social+information.
